In his speech, Marcos looked back on his time as a member of NP, admitting that he would never have been president if it wasn鈥檛 for the party鈥檚 help.

Because of this, he called on the members of both parties to support bets in the upcoming elections who are willing to set aside partisan and personal differences in politics.

鈥淸This is to ensure that the candidates] that will win next year are the leaders that understand that we must put our partisan or personal differences aside,鈥� said Marcos.

鈥淎ng pinaka mahalaga ay magkasundo tayo kung ano man ang pinakamaganda para matulungan natin ang ating mga kababayan,鈥� he noted.

(The most important is that we agree on whatever is best so that we can help our countrymen.)

鈥淚nuuna natin lagi ang ating mga kababayan. Inuuna natin lagi ang Pilipinas,鈥� he added.

(We always put our fellow citizens first. We always put the Philippines first.)

Former Senate President and NP President Manny Villar, for his part, expressed joy over the formation of the alliance, stating that it will prove that the Philippines is a 鈥渘ation capable of rising above differences in order to build a bright future.鈥�

鈥淭his alliance with the President鈥檚 political party 鈥� the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas 鈥� is the right first step towards that glorious direction,鈥� he said.

鈥淭his coalition of major political parties is a strong message to our people that political affiliation is subordinate to our common vision: Ang Bayan Higit Sa Lahat,鈥� he emphasized.

According to Marcos, the alliance between the PFP and NP is now the largest political bloc in the country.
